Right-Sizing the Institution to Meet Demographic Realities

Building and sustaining a healthy environment means finding, enrolling, educating and graduating the right students for your institution. This is becoming a challenging assignment as institutions experience shifting demographics, changing high school graduate projections, and workforce changes. For many of us, we are asking what the likely outcomes of the shifts in demographics will be on institutional enrollment planning. Others are wondering if we are being strategic in our thinking and leadership and if this is an opportunity to reset institutional size and focus, and, if so, how we introduce these discussions at out institutions.  

Listen to two long-time SEM experts talk about how post-secondary institutions are assessing the outcomes of the shifts in demographics to enhance institutional enrollment planning, and how this is influencing discussions to "right-size" the institution. The panelists have wide experience in enrollment management and have worked with numerous institutions to help them organize SEM teams and to increase institutional participation in SEM.
